As an artist, Nicholas Maradin enjoys working in a variety of traditional mediums, including but not limited to pencils, pens, markers, acrylics, oils, metalwork, papercraft, carpentry, modeling and LEGO bricks. However, his primary mode of creative operation is carried out through digital mediums such as Photoshop, where he combines traditional style with new technology.

Nick is also a collaborator with fellow artist Mike Majestic under the Vulne Pro Studio name, and is one of the artists featured in UDON Entertainment’s Mega Man tribute book.

A fan of robots and Japanese mecha anime, he is inspired by the work of Syd Mead, Yoji Shinkawa, Junji Okuubo, and many others.
